We should be very
disappointed at the recollection powers of Pontypridd MP Owen Smith.
He showed an admirable deficiency in remembering how his part of the
Welsh nation voted in the Brexit campaign.
On Andrew Neil’s Daily
Politics (BBC2) he quite easily pronounced that his area voted to
Remain. Rubbish. You only have to go to ‘walesonline’ and look
for the election results. These show without any doubt that the RCT
area (incl Pontypridd) voted LEAVE. 62,590 to 53,973.
Now he would
probably argue that all who did NOT vote would be Remainers. Tosh. As
a politician he should have known better. Just as well then he did
not win the stand-off with Jeremy Corbyn. We don’t need prospective
PM’s who cannot remember how the nation voted.
My question to him
would be – if you are a MP of our area (possibly debatable now) and
that area voted overwhelmingly No, would you when further voting is
required such as Article 50, vote against? In my view you are NOT
representing your constituency! By the way your mate from the Rhondda,
the glorious Christoforo Bryant is in the same predicament. Gents,
time to figure out what you were elected for!
It shows up the
collapsing Labour party, infighting, and a general attitude of ‘Who
cares...’ It’s like a lot of us have said before – Get rid of
the sharp-suited career politicians and get in some hard-working
down-to-earth people. Do us a favour Owen and Chris, just go back to
your old very uninteresting lives and stop pretending you care for
us.
